The Plague of Darkness
Exodus 10:21 – 29
And
the Lord said to Moses, Let your hand be stretched out to heaven, and all the
land of Egypt will be dark, so that men will be feeling their way about in the
dark. And when Moses' hand was stretched out, dark night came over all the land
of Egypt for three days; They were not able to see one another, and no one got
up from his place for three days: but where the children of Israel were living
it was light. Then Pharaoh sent for Moses, and said, Go and give worship to the
Lord; only let your flocks and your herds be kept here: your little ones may go
with you. But Moses said, you will have to let us take burned offerings to put
before the Lord our God. So our cattle will have to go with us, not one
may be kept back; for they are needed for the worship of the Lord our God; we
have no knowledge what offering we have to give till we come to the place. But
the Lord made Pharaoh's heart hard, and he would not let them go. And
Pharaoh said to him, Go away from me, take care that you come not again before
me; for the day when you see my face again will be your last. And Moses said,
you say truly; I will not see your face again.
